Dad's Cabin
"The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window." That was the message that was left on my phone one night. It was the Sheriff of the county why the heck up north where my Dad started building a cabin back in the 50's but never finished. The Sheriff said they were just out doing what they do I guess, and drove by the cabin and saw a light. No one has been up there in years. My Mom was just talking about selling the land. The Sheriff said he didn't see anyone around it but that we should come up and investigate. Really? Isn't that your job? But my husband said, "what the heck, it's not that late, it's Friday and we have the weekend, let's go. Plus I've never been there".

Sunset
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. We had had our cabin for 10 years and had never seen anyone around the old place. We were sitting by the campfire, a nightly ritual for us on a beautiful fall evening. My husband was concerned that maybe kids had broken in and was worried about a fire.
